Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090038507Fluorescent-Wax Emulsion For Pigment Ink Detection - A pigment ink formulation containing a fluorescing material and a method for pigment ink detection are disclosed. Preferably, the fluorescent material is contained in a fluorescent-wax emulsion. The fluorescent-wax emulsion is added into the pigment inks. A detecting unit comprised of an UV LED and a sensor can then be used to detect the fluorescent emission from the pigment inks. The detecting unit can detect all three color inks. The differences in signal detection can be used for ink identification.02-12-2009
20090071366Wax Emulsion For Inkjet Ink - The present invention provides a pigment ink formulation containing a wax emulsion is disclosed. The wax emulsion comprises a specific wax and surfactant combination. In particular, the wax comprises a linear polyethylene wax and the surfactant is an alkyl ether carboxylate. The wax emulsion can be made by any process for preparing emulsions used by those skilled in the art such as typical homogenization methods. Applicants have discovered that such a wax emulsion can not only improve the scratch resistance of pigmented ink, but also improve other handling problems such as scuff and smear.03-19-2009

20090017947Menal volleyball net - The design and ornamentation for a volleyball net as shown and described. A volleyball game net adapted by size and configuration to meet the requirements of play in the game of volleyball, said net having a micro mesh fabric that allows air to flow through yet is opaque in color and not see through, with a peripheral margin defined by a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge; said side edges being spaced apart from each other and joining the top edge to the bottom edge. Each edge is impregnated with a fluorescent material on each side of the net, which after being exposed to sunlight or incandescent light becomes visible after dark. The Menal Volleyball Net will have a distinct pattern centered from upper left corner to lower right corner depicting five Menal Volleyballs in a straight diagonal line. Each Menal Volleyball on the surface of the net will be of the exact shape and size with the appropriate triangular pattern and fluorescent tips of a regulation Menal Volleyball. Each Menal Volleyball descending from left to right will depict the ball rotating in flight such that the Menal Volleyball logo will be centered and prominately displayed in the third ball which shall be in the center of the Menal Volleyball Net.01-15-2009

20110013782SPEAKER SYSTEM AND AMPLIFIER - A system and methods for implementing substantially triangular or trapezoidal speaker enclosures and related components. A speaker enclosure may be shaped substantially as an equilateral triangle, loaded with three speakers mounted radially equidistant from the planar center of the triangular enclosure. The speaker enclosure may comprise a triangular port with a detachable lid. A speaker enclosure also may be shaped substantially as a box with an interior triangular subchamber. The speaker enclosures may further include an amplifier system having a novel input gain stage or a novel tone stack, or both. An amplifer system also may comprise parallel audio input processing through input gain modules and tone stack modules, with the separate audio signals summed by a novel mixdown module.01-20-2011

20120036351CONFIGURABLE MEMORY ENCRYPTION WITH CONSTANT PIPELINE DELAY IN A MULTI-CORE PROCESSOR - Described embodiments provide a method of coordinating debugging operations in a network processor. The network processor has one or more processing modules. A system cache of the network processor requests a data transfer between the system cache and at least one external memory. A memory interface of the network processor selects an encrypted data pipeline or a non-encrypted data pipeline based on whether the processed data transfer request includes an encrypted operation. If the data transfer request includes an encrypted operation, the memory interface provides the data transfer to the encrypted data pipeline and checks whether a debug indicator is set for the data transfer request. If the debug indicator is set, the memory interface disables encryption/decryption of the encrypted data pipeline. The data transfer request is performed by the encrypted data pipeline to the at least one external memory.02-09-2012

20110289180DATA CACHING IN A NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURE - Described embodiments provide for storing data in a local cache of one of a plurality of processing modules of a network processor. A control processing module determines presence of data stored in its local cache while concurrently sending a request to read the data from a shared memory and from one or more local caches corresponding to other of the plurality of processing modules. Each of the plurality of processing modules responds whether the data is located in one or more corresponding local caches. The control processing module determines, based on the responses, presence of the data in the local caches corresponding to the other processing modules. If the data is present in one of the local caches corresponding to one of the other processing modules, the control processing module reads the data from the local cache containing the data and cancels the read request to the shared memory.11-24-2011
20110289279DATA CACHING IN A NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURE - Described embodiments provide a method of coherently storing data in a network processor having a plurality of processing modules and a shared memory. A control processor sends an atomic update request to a configuration controller. The atomic update request corresponds to data stored in the shared memory, the data also stored in a local pipeline cache corresponding to a client processing module. The configuration controller sends the atomic update request to the client processing modules. Each client processing module determines presence of an active access operation of a cache line in the local cache corresponding to the data of the atomic update request. If the active access operation of the cache line is absent, the client processing module writes the cache line from the local cache to shared memory, clears a valid indicator corresponding to the cache line and updates the data corresponding to the atomic update request.11-24-2011
